I took this photo from our balcony at Sheraton hotel. At 300mm, this is a far away zoom of the northern part of the Atlantic beach. I like this part of the Atlantic, ocean here is very clean, there are some nice waves and it is not super overcrowded.
I took this one late afternoon at the Atlantic Beach, NC. We were walking back from far end of the pier and I saw these shadows running along giving kind of interesting leading lines. I did not have tripod with me, but fortunately there was a bench every 30-40 feet and I just used it as my stable mounting base. The Sheraton Hotel, we use it a lot to come up here. Location is really good, with nice waves breaking around the pier, the pier itself is part of the property and I can use Points+Cash to stay at this place, which saves me a lots of dough. Next time when we go there I want to bring bikes and ride on the beach to Fort Macon State park, it is only about 4-5 miles away. Just need to plan it around low tide…

Imagine standing above the ocean and hearing waves crashing under you and behind you. A little wind blowing in your face, it feels warm and comfortable. That is how it was when I took this picture. The sky was dark without, no moon around, some fishermen trying to catch their breakfast in the far end of the pier, I could go there for a quick stroll every night of the year.
This was taken in Atlantic Beach NC. I was trying to make some interesting shots, most didn’t work at all, some came out decently good, like this one. It was about 30 minutes before sunset, very boring sunset I must say.
This is early morning at Atlantic Beach in NC on Thanksgiving day. You can see a few other shots from that day if you browse to Atlantic Beach category. I even wrote something about that day in one of those posts.
